Privacy Policy

What WhatsMyType stores when you take the test, create an account or buy credits, and how to have it deleted.

Last updated: 2026-11-11

Summary

You can take the test and see your type without giving us your name, email or a photo. We store your picks so your result link keeps working. If you create an account to buy a full report, we also store your email.

What we collect

When you take the test

  • Which set you chose (women or men), the ids of the faces you tapped, the site language and the time you finished.
  • A random result id, which is the only thing in your result link.
  • Anonymous counters of how often each face is shown and picked across all visitors.

While a test is in progress, your picks stay in your browser's session storage and are sent to us only when you finish.

When you create an account

  • Your email address, display name and a securely hashed password, or the basic profile your sign-in provider shares if you use one.
  • The results you take while signed in and the reports you unlock.

When you buy credits

  • Payments are processed by Stripe. We receive the amount, the product, a payment reference and your email. We never see or store your full card number.

When you browse

  • Basic first-party traffic data: the page visited, the referring site, approximate country, device and browser type, and a random visitor id.
  • Cookies that keep you signed in and remember your language. We do not use advertising cookies.

What we do not collect

  • No photos of you. The test never asks for one.
  • No face scans or biometric data. The faces shown are AI-generated and fictional.
  • No contact lists and no precise location.

How we use it

  • To calculate and show your result, and to keep its link working.
  • To build the aggregate comparison in the full report. That comparison uses counts across all tests and cannot identify you.
  • To run accounts, process payments and prevent abuse.
  • To understand which pages are used so we can improve the site.

We do not sell personal data.

Result links

Anyone who has your result link can see the free part of that result. It does not show your name or email. The full report is visible only to the account that unlocked it.

Who we share data with

Only with providers that run the service for us: our hosting and database provider, Stripe for payments, an email provider for account emails, and the AI image services that draw portraits. For a portrait they receive a text description of your result and a few of the AI-generated faces you picked, never anything that identifies you. They process data on our instructions.

How long we keep it

  • Test results: until you ask us to delete them, or until the account that owns them is deleted.
  • Account data: until you delete your account.
  • Payment records: as long as tax and accounting law requires.

Your choices

Email support@whatsmytype.app to get a copy of your data, correct it, or have it deleted. To delete an anonymous result, send us its link. If you are in the EEA or UK you also have the right to object to processing and to complain to your data protection authority.

Age

This site is for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will update the date at the top and note the change here.
